Living where?
Family?
Career?
Hobbies?
Accomplishments?


Living where: I was living in the same city I still live in--in my 2nd year of College, I think it was the 2nd year anyway.

Family: Mom, Dad, me, and my much-beloved first Dachshund, Dutch was still alive. He was my 10th birthday present and he lived until I was 25. I still miss him.

Career: None, other than writing bad papers for English Lit classes. I didn't have a clue as to what I wanted to do yet.

Hobbies: The Mighty Mac of course--I've been a fan since the White Album--which I brought when I was 10 years old in 1975. Huge music fan and big reader--still am.

Accomplishments: None that I can remember.

Did Dutch like the Mac? I always thought our old shih tzu responded positively to the sound of Stevie's voice.

Well, 20 years ago, Justin was 5, and Lindsey was promoting Go Insane. I WISH I had been into Lindsey/FM back then, but ah well, as Stevie did say, everything happens for a reason.

My chow was black. He bit my aunt's earlobe off tho. We had to sell him, as my mom became scared he would bite me. She was hugging him and as we all know, most dogs don't like to be hugged or have their face nuzzled.

I missed him REALLY bad, but some breeders came and bought him and he had many children/grandchildren, so it's cool.

I like the look of chows, but they do have a rep for attacking, perhaps due to over-breeding these days.

Wow, I'd forgotten all about the puffy sticker craze of the early 80s.

OMG...me too!!!! My sister had the most kick ass sticker book...it had mint and sunkist scratch and sniff stickers and a ton of the puffy stickers..and a sticker with some weird liquid inside it (it popped in the book...but was still cool lol)...I used to sneak into her stuff (mostly to hide things...gosh I don't know why I annoyed her) and I'd always look at her sticker book...she still has it!! lol....as a memento I guess....

No--but my grandmother was a fan! She died six years ago--at the age of 92. I had a rocking grandma. Dutch had eclectic musical tastes--he liked Willie Nelson, Little Feat, and Bonnie Raitt. Go figure. My second dachshund really liked Stevie though. And he was fond of the Allman Brothers.

Were you in CT back then?

Yes, in Fair Haven~~an area technically in New Haven by the Quinnipiac River.
I have lived in most of the Havens (Fair, New, East and West)~Right now, in West Haven. The only Haven I did not reside in was North Haven.


I just go where my family goes as I live with my mom and siblings.

Animals are amazing when it comes to music~~my deceased cat Sylvester loved the Mac and The Eagles. My sister's cat relaxes with me when I have my stereo on but he seems more taken with TV~Animal Planet is his favorite.

My sister had a HotDog named Phoebe and he was so cute~~I miss him.

I hope that means you're under twenty and not that nobody paid attention to you in your childhood.

So in other words, you were born after Return of the Jedi was out?
I'm going to whack my monitor with my cane.

Ahh, the little weiner dog with the discriminating taste.

The only place I ever visited in CT was the historical Touro Synagogue many years ago. (I think it was CT, wasn't it? Maybe it was RI. I should check. Hell, I was never even in Boston until last year.)

And what did these cats do to show their love for the music?
